“My plans are to work closely with OFC, and to get the raw talents out of the Pacific and to play overseas and to pursue their careers in football. FIFA is also a big part of it. Whenever I am free I will always be helping the young talents. “

Apart from being the new ambassador for OFC, Krishna is also the national football team captain.

He says he is ready to lead Fiji again as they prepare for the World Cup qualifiers.

“My season is still going on and I will be more focused on my season, but I think my season will finish around March and then I’ll be joining the boys in Qatar.”

Krishna will be in the country in March to join the national football team before they take off for the FIFA World Cup preliminary competition in Qatar.
